    Can I open the pan pid to check when the instructions say to "cover and simmer"?

    The instructions on a box of flavored rice say to "cover and simmer for 15 minutes until tender". I often open the pan lid to check on the food; does this somehow negatively impact the cooking process? Or should I not open the lid at all until the 15 minutes are up? Thanks!

    I remember this vague scene from the OC where the main character almost makes out with his long-lost sister. Not a big fan of OC, so sorry :)

    Does this mean my HP laptop has a TV tuner preinstalled?

    According to the recovery manager on my HP entertainment notebook, an "HP USB DVB-T TV Tuner" driver is factory installed. Does this mean my laptop has a TV tuner enabled? Thanks.

    Is it legal to give fellatio to someone driving a car?

    I see it intermittently in comedy shows and movies, as a sort of joke. But is this legal? Not that I have any experience... *ahem

    What light source is best for making your own drafting light table?

    You know, one of those tables that let you trace drawings easily. I'm thinking of making one out of translucent plastic and wood boards. What's a cheap and effective light source for this? Initially thinking about OLED panels, but price was overkill. Thanks!
